This week's teaparty was to bring anything British - well, blame Downton Abbey, I immediately thought of this image I had!! This reminds me, too, of Pride & Prejudice and the gorgeous Colin Firth!!!
My image is a digi from freevintagedigistamps.blogspot.com and it was already coloured. My colours are Basic Black & Summer Starfruit & Birds of a Feather dp.
After I finished my card I realised it fitted with this week's Sketch Challenge - I have just put the bow ties on the opposite side of the image and combined the sentiment with the horizontal panel, which is black satin ribbon.
Thank you for taking the time to look!!

It's quite the lovely and very vintage card. Looks like old English countryside to me. Not that I would know lol! I love the color summer starfruit and it looks awesome with your digi! Amazing how 2 little bow ties just finish off the card!

Those little bows are a perfectly fashionable accent to this wonderful vintage look card. Not having TV I am not too familiar with Downton Abbey, but it sure says Pride and Prejudice to me.
